Unlike today, back then the Filmfare was the only film award that mattered.

Konkona Sen Sharma won the Best Debut Director Award for A Death In The Gunj. The result can be seen in this year's list of winners.

The awards accounted for some major emotional moments of euphoria and gratitude from the winners, and the performances evoked a sense of wonder and oomph into the proceedings.

The actor also tweeted that the journey of Hindi Medium has been testament to celebration of a story that is "told from the heart, of good content and most of all the want and sincerity to inculcate and encourage change". From the beginning of the 1980s up until the middle of the decade each year at the Filmfare Awards the biggest victor would invariably be a film that could be described as middle cinema or the Parallel cinema.

One of the leading magazines in India, in a bid to congratulate the actor mistakenly tagged Pathan in their congratulatory message on Twitter.

The film bagged five nominations in the following categories, Best Film, Saba Qamar for Best Actor (Female), Irrfan Khan for Best Actor (Male), Best Director, and Best Supporting Actor (Male). Among the many awards shows that honour the filmmakers and actors for their unparallel contribution in their respective movies, Filmfare has always been deemed as the biggest of them all.
